Like crispy noodles, Crispy Rice is also a key ingredient in Chinese cooking often used in sweets, savouries and Soups as a key ingredient or as a garnish.

Here we show you how to prepare and store some at home, handy for use in your favourite dishes.

To prepare this, 90 per cent cooked rice should be deep-fried till crisp. The ‘90 per cent’ is an important keyword here, because if the rice gets too mushy, it will just not dry up and it will be impossible to deep-fry it.

Make sure you cool the Crispy Rice well before storing it, otherwise it will ‘sweat’ and become soggy.
